G.A.P. Pillars of Service

Gravenhurst Against Poverty focuses on three pillars of service:
Picture

Food Program

Working in tandem with our G.A.P. Garden Program and the utilization of generous donations from a growing number of local farmers & organizations, G.A.P. is proud to ​offer a twice-weekly Food Program to support ​those in need from our community. 
Picture

Wellness

G.A.P. has an active Young Adult Program (YAC) and an all-ages Wednesday Coffee Social to address the need for mental wellness and community wholeness. 
Picture

Transportation

G.A.P. is proud to set up no-cost taxi rides for essential in-town trips needed by our neighbours for medical appointments, groceries, work, food bank, and laundry.

Providing Food to Those
​Who Need It The Most!

Due largely in part to COVID-19 and the global pandemic, G.A.P. has evolved the Supper Program into a more robust Food Program that is delivered to members within the community every Thursday. ​Additionally, a weekly Meal Pick-Up program runs every Tuesday at the Trinity United Church between 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM.
